BIG NEWS!!!

Every night before bath time, I sit on the potty. Usually I just sit there for a few minutes and say, "potty," and then get off and get into the tub, where I promptly pee in the water.

Well, tonight was different.
Tonight something HUGE happened:


I sat down and went pee pee in the potty! We were all very excited and screamed and laughed and sang the "Atticus went pee pee in the potty! Woo!" song for a long time. Hooray!!

The mac & cheese series

We had lunch at a diner with friends last weekend. After much consideration, I ordered the macaroni and cheese.


As you'll see, I started off with my spoon. It wasn't without incident, as you'll notice from the few cheese splatters in my hair, but it was fairly civilized.

Things began to go downhill, though, when I abandoned the spoon and went at it with my hands.


From there, really, there was just no turning back.


Mom got me cleaned up in time to pay the bill though. I think I'll put this on the card...

But I'll leave some cash for the tip.

Out with the boys

In keeping with how Mom and Dad have raised me so far, Dad took me a friend's brewery opening.
Yep, that's me in front of two beer taps. What about it?

Happy Halloween!

I was so excited to dress up in my monkey costume. It even comes with its own banana!


Bad Mommy only took a few pictures, but let me tell you, I make one darn cute primate.

I scream, you scream...

Believe it or not, besides one unsuccessful taste when I was very young, I'd never had ice cream before. So Mom and Dad gave me a little treat after dinner the other night.


I wasn't too sure about it at first but I finally took a taste...


Oh WOW! Why have you been hiding this deliciousness from me?!

"Pumpkin-Face"

Yes sir, with Halloween fast approaching, I knew what that meant. Time to put the "face" on the "pumpkin." Boy was I excited!


First Daddy cut off the top.


Then Mommy and I took all the goop out. I was a little unsure of the sliminess, so I used a spoon while Mom used her hands.


Then I checked to see if everything was out, and I yelled "pumpkin!" into the hole a few times to be extra sure.

And then Daddy put the face on it! Isn't it great?

Growing, growing, growing.

For some odd reason I like to sit like this in/on my chair... But the real purpose of this picture is to show you how LONG I am. I'm over 3 ftl tall now! Don't I look cute in my fish pajamas?

Exciting times.

It's getting to be winter in Rochester, so you know what that means?


Time for new slippers! How awesome are these?


Yeah, I'm tough, and I can totally pull off silly slippers.
